I don't know that I'd go that far with it. I have an XT and an X1. Both are great bikes for completely different reasons. The XT may be a superior bike in every way but the X1 always puts a bigger grin on my face.

I'd sell you my '07 XB9R for $4500 but I live in Louisiana. There is a red '09 1125r I would love to get.

I agree with your thoughts Phillip....my statement went to an extreme and didn't properly express my sentiments. The reality for me is this (owning an X and an X1 as well!): I rarely ride the X1 anymore, even tho I absolutely love the bike. The X is just such a great machine.

....maybe that will change when I someday finally own an S1W : D

Count me in on the X1 love society.
Mu Uly does everything better but the old X1 is on the "never sell" list!

It's loud, leaks everything, has over 84,000 on it Makes me giggle like a little girl when I ride it : )

why the s1w over just an s1?

its just the heads and cams that are different (and color) basically?

my s1 has stg3 xb heads from nrhs, big cams, xb 9 pistons... mofo scoots, left a xb12r with the race kit in the dust last summer :P

i got the xb wheels/brakes/front forks too, its like a carbed xb in a tube frame with high compression

ill just keep riding my tube i guess. i have a plast :/ and a nt650gt to put around on until i geter' back together

i'm not particular about thw "W" so much, i just copy and pasted to quote, i'd be happy with an S1 : )

I was on a flat green 12S. D&D, K&N, and Erik Buell Racing Race ECM. I saw you in Lemoore, and then again on the 198.
